So,

Providers of DANE backed services are stuck on the well-known
algorithms, and do not have insight on algorithm support by clients
verifying these services with DANE.

This draft in combination with double signing, provides the means to
deal with this (and in a secure manner too).

I think this is an important motivation of this work and that this
should be reflected in the Introduction section of the draft.
